Chapter 1094 Multi-touch(1/2)

Zhang Xuhao is going to Japan to discuss UC Beauty and UC Mobile Assistant with Tang Binchen. This is a product for the Japanese market. It depends on a group of Chinese people working behind closed doors. If they are lucky, it will be recognized by the market. Over time, the secret will be exposed.

It is still necessary to have a product experience team composed of local people to improve and perfect product details and design.

It just so happened that Zhou Buqi was also going to Japan.

That night, Zhou Buqi returned to his home in Shanghai, holding his one-year-old daughter in his arms. He was teasing her while chatting with Wen Zhixia, and then he received a call from Zhou Shaoning.

Another good news!

Zhou Buqi was really right!

The booming sales of iPhones in the Japanese market have doubled the pressure on the other two major operators to sell Google series smartphones...

Very anxious! Very eager!

This is great!

The other two major operators are actively asking for cooperation, so Ziweixing has room for negotiation. It has reason to bundle its own products with the operator's services.

"Are you leaving again?" Wen Zhixia sighed a little, and also felt a little resentful. Her man was too busy and had too little time to spend with her.

Zhou Buqi took her daughter from her arms again and said with a smile: "Isn't the market in Magic City started to open? You don't need to keep an eye here all day, right?"

"What's going on?"

"You and I can go to Japan and take our precious daughter with you."

"It's summer vacation and I'm very busy."

"Then you need to rest." Zhou Buqi said decisively, "Okay, it's settled. You are my wife, and you have to listen to me, or I won't marry you."

Wen Zhixia gave him a charming look and said, "Don't threaten me. If you don't marry me, I won't marry you. I have a daughter now and I'm not afraid of you anymore."

Zhou Buqi looked angry and said, "What? How dare you not want your husband after you have a daughter? I think you're looking for a fight!"

"Oh, don't make trouble." Wen Zhixia pushed him and pursed her lips, "Are you really going to Japan?"

"Well, go ahead."

"I just got a salary increase here, so I'm going to take leave."

"What are you afraid of? Who dares to fire you?" Zhou Buqi said indifferently, "Well, how much is your salary?"

Wen Zhixia smiled brightly and said: "It's over 100,000, um, 15 months a year."

Zhou Buqi was surprised: "So much? The annual salary after tax is more than 1 million yuan? My monthly salary is only 10,000 yuan. Sure enough, I can make more money by doing education and training."

Wen Zhixia chuckled and said: "How can you have 10,000? It's only more than 8,000."

"Who said that?"

"Your salary is stuck with me."

"Huh?" Zhou Buqi raised his eyebrows, "I remember I gave it to Wu Yu..."

Wen Zhixia leaned into his arms with a smile, "She gave it to me."

"Well, we will go get the certificate in a few months." Zhou Buqi hugged her into his arms, a little strange, "By the way, why can't Nian Nian still speak? I see that boy from Liu Qiangdong's family, there are 10

It’s been months since I called you daddy.”

Wen Zhixia hesitated for a moment, "Maybe it's delayed in development. Sometimes I can say "mom" and "mom" twice.

"Mom, damn...it's not a curse word, is it?"

"roll!"

Wen Zhixia was almost furious. How could a father talk like that?

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "This is my first time becoming a father, so I'm not inexperienced."

"Being a father for the first time?" Wen Zhixia looked contemptuous.

Zhou Buqi became serious, and said solemnly, "We have to make this clear. I only miss this daughter, and I don't have any illegitimate children!"

Wen Zhixia sneered twice, "Baoshan told me all."

"What did she say? How dare she... uh..." At this moment, Zhou Buqi suddenly realized, and the righteousness on his face suddenly disappeared, and he became sarcastic, "Well... I mean it was my first time as a

My dear dad, so I have no experience, is this okay?"

My dear sister, you know how to tell the truth!

Go back and spank her!



From the magical capital to the capital, I picked up Zhou Shaoning and several others and went to Tokyo together.

The mobile phone business is booming!

The United States has done it, Europe has done it, and now even orders from Japan have been obtained.

On the plane, Zhou Buqi and Zhou Shaoning sat together and talked about this matter.

Feeling sad.

The iPhone is really amazing.

Mobile phone manufacturers such as Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, Philips and LG have been unable to enter the Japanese market for so many years. The local traditional industry structure is really too strong.

When Apple comes, everything turns upside down!

iPhone not only broke the convention that foreign mobile phone manufacturers cannot survive in the country, but also created a series of sales records.

Obviously, SoftBank did not expect that the iPhone would be so popular. The number of orders they received in advance was not large, causing many areas to be sold out in just a few hours.

This is something that has never happened before in the history of Japanese mobile phones.

It can be seen that people welcome and love iPhone.

SoftBank is urgently increasing orders from Apple. For this, Masayoshi Son can sit on the fishing boat. He contacted Jobs in 2006 and wanted to introduce iPhone to Japan. At that time, the first-generation iPhone had not yet appeared.

Because the time is early, the risk is high, and the conditions offered by Apple will be more favorable, providing SoftBank with the exclusive agency rights for iPhones for three years.

In other words, iPhones this year, next year and the year after that can only be purchased from SoftBank in the Japanese market.

The other two major operators are in a hurry.

We can only focus on Google, namely the Aster mobile phone.

This is the only option.

Nokia, Motorola, etc. are no good. They are still playing with physical buttons and resistive screens. They really can't keep up with the trend.

Zhou Shaoning sighed, "Touch screen mobile phones have actually been around a few years ago, but they used to be resistive screens. The reason iPhones are a trendy product is because they use capacitive screens and multi-touch."

"We have a capacitive screen?"

"Um."

"Single touch?"

"right."

"Can't you do multi-touch? Is it very difficult?"

"Well, it's difficult!"

"We should still find ways to solve it. Multi-touch is the development trend of touch screens." In this regard, Zhou Buqi expressed his views with confidence, "Back then, Apple launched the mouse, which changed the personal computer industry.

Now that they have launched multi-touch, it can also change the mobile phone industry. What multi-touch means to mobile phones is what the mouse means to computers."

Zhou Shaoning is obviously an expert in this field, so he explained: "Multi-touch technology... has actually been studied since the 1980s, mainly at two locations, one is Bell Labs and the other is Microsoft. I was at Bell back then.

When I was working in the laboratory, the multi-touch laboratory was next door to me. Later, Bell Labs' technology was resold to a company, which was acquired by Apple in 2005."

Zhou Buqi blinked, "So, the multi-touch patents are now in the hands of Microsoft and Apple?"

"Well, they have all the patents of Cornerstone." Zhou Shaoning nodded, "However, multi-touch is simple to say, but it is a very complex technical system, including process flow. For example, iPhone, similar process components,

It needs to be produced here in the United States to form modules, and then shipped to China for secondary assembly and processing. The domestic technology is still a bit inferior."

Zhou Buqi’s head is getting bigger.

Even the assembly process is lacking?

Well... the entire production line of iPhones in the future will be in China, which shows that the process technology of some processing plants such as Foxconn is also developing by leaps and bounds.

For example, they later moved their production lines to India and Southeast Asia, but the core assembly still had to be completed domestically. The level of craftsmanship there was not high enough and they could not assemble materials that were too precise.

Seeing that he was thoughtful, Zhou Shaoning thought he was very interested in multi-touch, so he further explained the technical principles, "Multi-touch is actually adding a layer to the LCD screen to capture multiple points on the screen."

Screen film with touch signal function. This is the core patent and the cornerstone of multi-touch, both in the hands of Apple and Microsoft. However, to achieve multi-touch, more complex technology is needed."

"Yeah?"

How could Zhou Buqi understand this? I could only listen to what he said.

Zhou Shaoning said: "Well, the reason why Nokia and Motorola stick to keyboards and are unwilling to make bolder explorations on touch screens is mainly because the light transmittance problem cannot be solved."

"Light transmittance?"

"Yes, for example, when you use a computer or mobile phone, you will find that some screens are brightly colored and some are dark and black. This means that the light transmittance of the screen is too poor. At present, the best light-transmitting material in the world is glass.
